MAX2769B
Universal GPS Receiver
General Description
The MAX2769B is a next-generation Global Navigation
Satellite System (GNSS) receiver covering GPS, GLONASS,
Galileo, and Compass navigation satellite systems on
a single chip. This single-conversion GNSS receiver is
designed to provide high performance for industrial and
automotive applications.
Designed on Maxim’s advanced, low-power SiGe BiCMOS
process technology, the MAX2769B offers the highest
performance and integration at a low cost. Incorporated
on the chip is the complete receiver chain, including a
dual-input LNA and mixer, followed by the image-rejected
filter, PGA, VCO, fractional-N frequency synthesizer,
crystal oscillator, and a multibit ADC. The total cascaded
noise figure of this receiver is as low as 1.4dB.
The MAX2769B completely eliminates the need for exter-
nal IF filters by implementing on-chip monolithic filters
and requires only a few external components to form a
complete low-cost GPS RF receiver solution.
The MAX2769B is the most flexible receiver on the mar-
ket. The integrated delta-sigma fractional-N frequency
synthesizer allows programming of the IF frequency
within a ±30Hz (f
XTAL
= 32MHz) accuracy while operat-
ing with any reference or crystal frequencies that are
available in the host system. The ADC outputs CMOS
logic levels with 1 or 2 quantized bits for both I and Q
channels, or up to 3 quantized bits for the I channel. I and
Q analog outputs are also available.
The MAX2769B is packaged in a 5mm x 5mm, 28-pin thin
QFN package with an exposed paddle.

Note 1:
MAX2769B is production tested at T
A
= +25NC and +85NC. All min/max specifications are guaranteed by design and char-
acterization from -40NC to +85NC, unless otherwise noted. Default register settings are not production tested or guaran-
teed. User must program the registers upon power-up.
Note 2:
Default, low-NF mode of the IC. LNA choice is gated by the ANT_FLAG signal. In the normal mode of operation without an
active antenna, LNA1 is active. If an active antenna is connected and ANT_FLAG switches to 1, LNA1 is automatically dis-
abled and LNA2 becomes active. PLL is in an integer-N mode with f
COMP
= f
TCXO
/16 = 1.023MHz and ICP = 0.5mA. The
complex IF filter is configured as a 5th-order Butterworth filter with a center frequency of 4MHz and bandwidth of 2.5MHz.
Output data is in a 2-bit sign/magnitude format at CMOS logic levels in the I channel only.
Note 3:
The LNA output connects to the mixer input without a SAW filter between them.
Note 4:
Two tones are located at 12MHz and 24MHz offset frequencies from the GPS center frequency of 1575.42MHz at -60dBm/
tone. Passive pole at the mixer output is programmed to be 13MHz.
Note 5:
Measured from the LNA input to the LNA output. Two tones are located at 12MHz and 24MHz offset frequencies from the
GPS center frequency of 1575.42MHz at -60dBm per tone.
